Extra-Curricular Activities

We learn to balance extra-curricular activities with our elementary expectations by showing students it is very important to be known as a student-athlete. If students realize their school expectations come before sports they will be more driven to get their homework done so they can stay involved. As an educator I would help students also realize the consequences of rushing schoolwork just to be "done" with it. Extra-curricular activities can keep students very busy so it is also important to inform parents at home to show that homework is the number one priority. Once students understand how to balance school and activities they become an all together more organized, balanced person.
